Eastern Shore Family YMCA

Positive experience: Solid place for drop in training if from out of town. Staff very friendly and the members seem to be nice as well. For people who train in Olympic style weightlifting or powerlifting it could be difficult due to limited amount of space/barbells. Also barbells are low quality. For people who are just looking for general fitness on the Eastern Shore of VA this is a 5 star spot. They have a large locker room with a sauna room. As well as a pool, racquetball court, weight room with cardio equipment. I also believe they have a studio room for fitness classes but not sure. Overall solid place to train.

Positive experience: It's not biggest YMCA facility. But they make good use of the space have have quite a bit to offer. The locker rooms are generally pretty clean, and they have a fairly nice pool, albeit not that deep. That being said, staff is friendly, dedicated, and willing to help at a moment's notice. Membership fees can be pretty high, but they do offer a kind of sliding scale fee as long as you qualify. They have a nice gymnasium for the size of the place and they also offer yoga classes, and a few other choices most places on the shore do not have. They also have a daycare facility for patrons who may have little ones but may want to work out or use the hot tub. The kind ladies working in the daycare will watch your child for up to an hour at a time, so long as you are on-site. I would highly recommend stopping in and asking any questions you may have determine whether or not this would be a fit for your lifestyle. If so, they're worth a go.

Fantastic experience: If your looking to get in shape and better your health this is the place to be.

Positive experience: Very friendly and helpful staff. Not a lot of equipment but very solid for the community they serve. Lat pull down machine would be great addition.
